No fan of Hilary Swank but is this gown gorgeous?

That is hideous. It looks like someone barfed on her and used White Out to cover it up.

She looks like a monster.

That's some cum shot.

Gorgeous? It looks cheap and sleazy. See through gowns are not attractive.

The white is the sliver beading reflecting the camera flashes, Einstein.

I have no opinion about Swank, one way or the other, but I agree about the gown, OP. Stunning.

The gown itself is fine, but Hillary Swank should be reported for dress abuse.

Ugh. I hate beige, I hate illusion netting, I hate crap stuck to netting, and I hate long skirts you can see through. That dress is everything I hate about today's trends.
I also hate her bra. It's letting her down.

You're an idiot, R6. Of the jessica Simpson variety.

Hate the gown.
WHET her career, anyhow?

Hillary looks much better when she wears her hair long and down.

The dress looked much better on TV than on pics.

she needs some makeup. sheeeeesh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The gown looks much better from a distance.

Swank looks much better from a distance too, R15. Like from 5 miles away...with a bag over her head.

Her German is actually quite good

That hairstyle is too severe for her face. She needs something that will soften her out.

I like the dress, aside from the fact that most of the photos picked up too much reflection from the crystals. It looks good on her.
The accompanying article was interesting. I had no idea she has been involved in so many recent projects. Good for her.

Why was she even there if there wasn't a megalomaniac, homicidal head of state to throw her support behind?

[quote]Her German is actually quite good
Does that make her a Frau?

Still can't believe this bitch has won two oscars. SHE'LL NEVER BE MERYL!

It was bespoke with real blood diamonds and stitched in a sweatshop by genuine orphans (abused, of course).

And for that we are grateful. One Meryl is more than enough.

I can't stand Annette Bening, so Swank is good in my book.

Not Warren (Unbelievable, right?)

That gown is hideous and looks like something an 80 y.o. socialite would wear.

Can someone link me to Hilary Swank speaking German? I don't think she does. The other chick does - Sandra Bullock, and hers is good. She lived in Germany till she was 12.

Hilary Swank is one lucky bitch.

Love the gown -- too bad that horseface is wearing it.
Put it on Charlize and I'll lick it off her.

The dress is hideous. But then she never really looks good in anything. She's not attractive at all! Plain, at best.
It's hard to believe she's won two Oscars. I don't think she's even considered that good an actress. She won two Oscars for playing the SAME character: a mannish, white trash girl. Since her background is trailer-park trash and she seems very dykey, I don't think either role was much of an acting stretch for her.

She does seem trashy & dykey but not sure if she is. She's not exactly "white" trash. She's Mexican & White.

Gina Lollabridgida looks amazing. Also Tiny. I forgot she was still alive. Everyone is so obssessed with Sophia Loren, but Gina was a hot sassy momma. Just not as well known.
Hilary Swank's dress must not photograph well, because I thought it wasn't very nice. She was at a frickin' Viennese Ball. In London. She should have looked less "OScar" and more formal in the European version of formal.

How did she and Mira Sorvino get invited to this affair? They're not part of that type of society.

I'm no Swank fan. The only film of hers I've seen is the laughably bad and not in a good way "The Back Dahlia."
Still, although usually I don't care for the illusion of nude thing, this gown is an exception. It is gorgeous, OP, and perfect for the occasion.

Gurl, dem titties is hangin' LOW...

She'll really show up to the opening of an envelope, won't she? She grew up living in her car, I wonder what she thinks of all the craziness she lives in now.

It's very Bob Mackie.

My gawd she is horse face

Does Hillary have to pay off a bunch of debts or something? She keeps being photographed at random appearances.

She didn't grow up in her car. I actually doubt that whole story anyway. Her father had money didn't he?

Yes, r37, although I don't know if you're complimenting or knocking, you've put your finger on it. This gown, however, is a restrained Mackie.
I've always loved his work.
And yes, I know he didn't design this. He's dead, isn't he?

It looks like something an old lady judging a dog show would wear. Still, I admire Swank, our current Katharine Hepburn.
